Does anyone use a Mic?

I find the external voice, regardless whether it was from Teamspeak or VOIP distracted my gaming.

I disabled VOIP on day 1. I use teamspeak with friends.

There was almost no players speaking in BF2/2142 (but more than BC2 I agree, I heard only one guy in 120hours). The only times VOIP was really used was in BF2 mods, especially PR.

Are you talking about WOT? I use a mic but it is with Teamspeak 3. I have never heard anyone communicate with VOIP in game at all.

I like silence, that way I don't have to spend 5 minutes muting various nitwits each time I play.

LOL, I'm typically a Squad Leader so I would kick people in the older BF games if I got someone that whined too much. In TF2, it gets out of hand, but in L4D, it is perfect with 4 players communicating. In my very short time playing I noticed that there is not as much teamplay, that might have been the server I was on too. But, when you get those people that spawn on eachother, it turns into a completely different match.

p.s. long time no see :p

I've been over at a adult forum for the last couple years trying to correct my sexual addictions I swore I would not buy another DiCE product till they go there stuff together. Well, it cost me $1200 to play this game, so I'm hoping it is worth the hype everyone I know is giving it.

Ingame voip is intermittent so sometimes it works other times its completely useless.

It is more of a rhetorical question. Last night was my first time in game and I the very first thing that struck me was not the differences in game play or weapons...it was not one person using a microphone. WTH? I talked with two buddies on Steam and they had noticed the same thing.

I was really getting used to people with mic's. Seems like you can't get away from them with L4D and TF2. BF2, you just had to use a mic once as a squad leader and people would queue theirs up.

Am I wrong about this?
